Day 1: SDC/CLAMP Create a Control Loop in a Service


UML for CLAMP Service Assurance Configuration

title This is the flow for designing, configuring and deploying Control Loops

participant SDC

participant CLAMP

actor Operator

participant DCAE_SCH

participant DCAE_Deployment

participant DCAE_Inventory

participant Policy

participant CDS

participant DCAE_Policy_Handler

autonumber

CLAMP -> Policy : Every 5 min. Get available policy models(Ops and Config).
note left
 
This Step is done asynchronously
 
end note
Service_Designer -> SDC : Create/Test/Certify service, \nwith control loop DCAE flow

SDC -> CLAMP : CSAR distribution

CLAMP -> DCAE_Inventory : Get DCAE Service Id based on Distributed Parameters
DCAE_Inventory -> CLAMP : Rcv DCAE Service Id based on Distributed Parameters

SDC -> DCAE_SCH : Blueprint distribution

DCAE_SCH -> DCAE_Inventory : Save blueprint

Operator -> CLAMP : Configuration of control loop
note left
During this Step, the Operator can opt
to upload manually a policy model instead of using
an existing one (periodically downloaded)  
end note

CLAMP -> CDS: Get list of Actions and payloads \nfor Operational Policies(if CDS is the « Actor »)

CLAMP -> Policy : Create Configuration and Operational Policies 

Policy -> DCAE_Policy_Handler : Configuration Policy(mS config.)


CLAMP -> DCAE_Deployment : Trigger Deployment
note left
This Step is involved when the microservices are not
 pre-deployed in DCAE(which is the normal case)
end note

@enduml

TODO: Update UML with correct terminology. Update UML to add SDC Service Distribution

example of policies, blueprints, api calls. etc.


Day N: Control Loop Deployment

Control Loop deployment happens when an instance of a Service is created.

Day N: Runtime Flow of a Control Loop

The following is a control loop message flow, across DCAE, Policy and App-C.  The sections afterward will describe the process for designing, configuring and instantiating this flow.
